lots to do!

This past weekend, Garrett was trying to explain to Ethan the ins-and-outs of Groundhog's Day.  A funny conversation in itself...trying to explain the logistics of how a groundhog named Phil gets so much say-so in our life is pretty funny...especially when explained to a 2-year old!  After their conversation, I was brought into the mix.  I thought I would be clarifying Garrett's claims to the all-knowing furry little guy, but this is how our conversation went...

Garrett - Hey Mom!  What day is Groundhog's Day on???

Me  - Hmmmm, I think it's on Tuesday.

Garrett - (letting out the most frustrated/overwhelmed sigh ever)  AAAHHHH....UGGGGHHHHH!  NOOOOOO!!!  Tuesday?!?!?!?

Me - (honestly, quite bewildered by his sudden change of mood!) Uh, yeah.  It's Tuesday.  Is that okay?

Garrett - (openly crying now!)  Mom!  Tuesday is already so busy!!!!

Me - (still totally confused) what???

Garrett - (still whimpering!) You know...100th day of school?!?!?!?  And now Groundhog Day???  It's just too much!  

So there's a look into my completely over-scheduled 7 year old!  Poor baby!
